Is there a way to detect, through browser Javascript, multi-touch events of a trackpad, magic mouse or magic trackpad on a Mac?

Question

I know there are many ways to do so directly on the iPhone (jQtouch), but I'd like to detect those events in my computer's browser.

Mozilla has some support for mouse gestures: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/Events/Mouse_gesture_events

Looks like chrome and safari don't have native support for the same : JQuery - Can I query the MacBook Pro Trackpad?
